Veterinary Technology

Are you passionate about helping animals?

Licensed Veterinary Technicians (LVT’s) are indispensable members in the veterinary medical team, capable of providing everything from nursing care and surgical assistance to physical therapy and client education. LVT’s can also pursue other avenues including, but not limited to, research and pharmaceutical sales.

The University of Maine Augusta’s Veterinary Technology program is the first in Maine to offer a Bachelor of Science Degree in this field. The program is located on the Bangor campus and is designed to provide extensive training in theory and principles, hands-on technical skills, and laboratory experience needed to prepare you for this exciting field.
